Rob Wittman: Weekly Update - How Can I Help You?
 |
| English: (Photo credit: Wikipedia) |
From Prince William County to Hampton Roads, I serve some of the strongest communities in the Commonwealth, and I am humbled every day to work for the people of Virginia’s First District. As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, I truly believe that my primary responsibility is to represent the interests of the men and women who’ve elected me, and I can only do that with your continued input and feedback.
Whether I’m advocating for our federal workers and service members—both during and after their service—or strengthening our economy by preserving the Chesapeake Bay and our other natural resources, I am committed to advancing commonsense policies that further Virginia’s legislative priorities. But that isn’t all that I do. My office is also here to help in more specific ways—by assisting with grant applications and federal agency issues, providing military service academy nominations, offering internships, and even scheduling tours of the Capitol and other landmarks and monuments here in Washington, D.C.
Below is a more comprehensive list of the constituent services I provide through my offices in Stafford, Tappahannock, Yorktown, and Washington. Please reach out to let me know how I can serve you better. I look forward to hearing from you.
Help With a Federal Agency
As a U.S. representative, one of the most important things that I do is help constituents who are having issues with federal agencies. While I cannot override final decisions made by federal agencies, my office can help with communication, information, status updates, and even requests for agency reconsideration.
Grants and Federal Domestic Assistance
My office provides information about grants as well as a list of resources that de-mystify the grant application process.
Student Financial Aid
I’ve teamed up with the Department of Education to provide high school and college students and parents in Virginia’s First District with information and financial aid options for higher education. See my website or contact my offices for more information.
Military Service Academy Nominations
I have the privilege each year of nominating a number of determined and hard-working young men and women to four of our nation’s five service academies. You can find a preliminary online application here or contact my Yorktown office for more information.
Congressional Internships
We offer a number of internships to First District students who are interested in policy, public service, and political communications. If you or someone you know is interested, contact any one of my offices to learn more.
Tour Requests
Not only do we offer tours of the Capitol through our Washington, D.C. office, but we can also help you schedule tours of the White House, the Library of Congress, and other national landmarks and monuments. Let us know how we can make your visit to D.C. even better!
American Flag Requests
Having a flag flown over the Capitol is a great way to honor an event or the memory of a loved one, and my office is happy to facilitate that. Click here or contact my Washington, D.C. office to purchase a flag and include a personal message.
The main streets of Virginia’s First District are full of ideas to get our economy back on track, and your feedback is critically important to me as I serve you. I can be reached by telephone at (202) 225-4261, through my website (www.wittman.house.gov), on Facebook (www.facebook.com/reprobwittman), and via Twitter (www.twitter.com/robwittman).

PEER REVIEWED SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE EXPOSES CHEMTRAIL AS CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY

| English: Waking up to the Chemtrail onslaught (Photo credit: Wikipedia) |
A peer reviewed, court admissible scientific evidence of the deliberate annihilation of the global population has been released to the public by a very prominent scientist. This explosive revelation was made through the peer reviewed International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health.
This would mean that any interested party can file a class suit against government agencies and private entities authorizing and performing chemtrail operations around the globe, most especially in America and its allied countries.
The days of highly intoxicated pro-chemtrail trolls are officially over.
Peer-Reviewed, Court-Admissible, Scientific Research Paper Published Exposing Geoengineering
Scientific evidence now exists which indicates the presence of “toxic coal combustion fly ash” in the Earth’s atmosphere. The following abstract excerpt comes from a peer-reviewed paper recently published in the August 11th issue of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health – State of the Nation

Governor McAuliffe Announces More Than $8.2 Million in Community Development Block Grants
~ Projects include water and sewer service, downtown revitalization, and housing rehabilitation ~
RICHMOND – Governor Terry McAuliffe today announced more than $8.2 million in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding for 12 projects in Virginia. Since 1982, the federally-funded CDBG program has been administered by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), and Virginia receives approximately $17 million annually for this grant program.
Speaking about today’s announcement, Governor McAuliffe said, “In order to build a new Virginia economy, we need to use all available resources to improve the lives of Virginians. These projects help provide better infrastructure, affordable housing, and revitalize downtown districts to create sustainable and vibrant communities across the Commonwealth.”
Speaking at an event in Bassett, Virginia, Secretary of Commerce and Trade Maurice Jones said, “The CDBG program continues to help localities across the Commonwealth make the necessary investments to stay competitive and thrive in today’s economic environment. These funds are critical in order to help our communities, particularly those in rural areas, become the best places to live, work and conduct business.”
CDBG grants are awarded through a competitive process. Most projects benefit low- and moderate-income persons, and many projects are targeted for the prevention or elimination of slums and blight conditions.
During this year’s competitive cycle, 22 proposals were submitted by 21 localities, and 11 projects received the initial funding, with two projects receiving multi-year funding and one project receiving a letter of intent. Multi-year funding projects are those that will receive a contract allocating a portion of the funds this year, and after achieving specific performance targets, the project will then be eligible for additional funding. The letter of intent project is worthy of funding but lacks key components necessary for the project to be immediately implemented, and the grant allows the locality to address the missing key components.

Governor McAuliffe Statement on the Supreme Court of Virginia
RICHMOND – Governor Terry McAuliffe issued the following statement on the legislature’s failure to elect a Justice to the Supreme Court of Virginia:
“I am shocked and saddened that Republican leaders denied a sitting Supreme Court Justice a hearing, even as she sat at her desk, across the street from today’s Joint Courts of Justice meeting, continuing to serve the citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. This is not the Virginia way to treat anyone, let alone an outstanding female jurist. Republicans have yet to raise a single concern about Justice Roush’s legal skills or her integrity. Indeed, they have repeatedly acknowledged that her qualifications are unmatched.
“Republican leaders ultimately were incapable of electing anyone, leaving the state’s highest court in a state of uncertainty. It is disgraceful that Republicans have turned a serious decision affecting Virginia’s entire judicial system into an embarrassing partisan circus. I call on lawmakers to return to Virginia’s time-honored traditions for electing judges. I ask that they walk across the street and invite Justice Roush to a new hearing, one that is open and fair, and gives this highly qualified judge the respect she is due.”

Rush Limbaugh On Planned Parenthood

The thing that I'm having trouble with is the attitude of the White House, the Democrat Party and leftists. None of it...
Posted by Rush Limbaugh on Friday, July 31, 2015
As this issue continues to move forward it turns out that a 4th video has just been released and it is more shocking than any of the 3 previous videos. People want to get rid of Confederate monuments but seem complacent on the issues of life? People are upset about a lion being killed in some far away country but the murders going on in our own front yards mean nothing? Now that is what you call very heavy indoctrination of the masses. Swayed by big media that really cares nothing about you other than controlling your opinions. At what point do you get involved and say enough is enough? Yeah, we know, let someone else do it.
National Insanity Hits Mathews CountyThe
Posted by Marsha Maines on Thursday, July 30, 2015
The war against history that has been raging for weeks now has moved to Mathews County. The supposed threat that history posses on some people who are ignorant has no end in sight.
The 4 clips above come from a popular Walt Disney cartoon featuring Donald Duck. They promote racism and nazism. Yet there is no public outcry against Walt Disney for having created a bunch of these types of cartoons. What is interesting to note is the Nazi swastika is a slight variation from a very ancient religious symbol. Everyone cries that we should not forget our world history so that we do not ever repeat it. So one has to ask, if everyone is removing Civil War American History, we will be doomed to repeat that which some say is racism. So are we really being told that these folks want a return to slavery? People being bought and sold on blocks like cattle? The Confederate flag was a sign of Confederate state rights. Nothing about slavery. Slavery did not come into play in the Civil War until Abraham Lincoln threw it in at a much later date well after the war started and the Confederate flag was created.
General Robert E Lee, Recollections and Letters from Chuck Thompson
Take a look at Robert E Lee's account of the Civil War and one has to ask if it was about slavery. Slavery was an issue since it started in Colonial America and was despised by many. The first slave owner in the Colonial America was a black freeman who had to take his claim to court in order to be allowed to own a slave. The problem today is ignorance. Its a lack of many of a true history education and that is by design. Stop believing what you see on TV. Its only entertainment and not designed to be accurate. Liberal liberties are taken everywhere to keep you dumbed down. The Confederate Flag is still a symbol to so many of American Freedom and rights. Not about racism as only a very few claim. Once again it seems we are going to let the few control the majority and allow the violation of our own rights and thoughts just dwindle to dust.
